Integrated Innovation: Using ADO.NET 2.0 with SQL Server 2005

Abstract:SQL Server 2005 and ADO.NET 2.0, along with the rest of the .NET Framework 2.0, have been in the works for some time now and they bring lots of innovation with them — not only that, they’ve been carefully designed to work together and provide the best platform for integrated database application development. In this session we discuss the key features that make ADO.NET 2.0 and SQL Server 2005 a winning combination. We touch on topics such as using ADO.NET inside SQL/CLR, System.Transactions integration, asynchronous command execution, and new data type support.
